This was an depressing thing I felt I had to write after I saw Appa's lost days. It really has nothing to do with it, I kinda just got a shot of inspiration from a new episode. Angsty Zutara, not really explained. I'll let you fill in the blanks. And if Iroh is dead or not, that's your choice. As for Zuko and Katara... well... what you read is the truth, yep. And if you don't already know Aang's point of view.
Reviews would be appreciated.
I wonder if life was meant to be this way… with all that death and sadness. But then I think to myself… where would the world be without these things? How would we know our morals? How would we know our good from bad? Love from hate? We wouldn't… that's exactly what I am trying to say here. I've had dreams… dreams about odd things, things not from this universe. About two girls talking about this same thing. I don't exactly know who they were, or if they even knew each other, but they had a secret bond.
Funny… how strings connect us all in this cursed world. Then this leads me to think about bending. About how everything requires balance. This makes me wonder… in thousands of years from now… will this be the same principle? Will this be the exact same reason everything is in harmony? Or will things change? Will people change? I think they already have. Toph has, I have, Katara, and Sokka has. One thing that I don't know for certain is if Zuko has. Has the loss of his uncle Iroh changed who he is? When did they get separated in the City of Ba Sing Se? Did the Dai Li have anything to do with it?
So many questions but none of them really get answers… this makes me wonder something else. Are the stares he silently gives her of anger, or friendship? Are the way he smiles at her when no one is watching of plotting or sincerity? Biggest question of all was, what happened that night after the last stand? After we conquered, After we got Ozai. Why was Katara plastered on Zuko's body sobbing? Why did he lift up her chin? Why did the flames consume them and then spread apart? Why did they spread apart to reveal them kissing, then consume them again? Why did they leave me? All that was left was Katara's necklace, and a betrothal necklace that had fire and water together. When I picked them up and stared at them, Sokka crashed to the floor. Toph ran and hugged me. I guess the answer to all of those questions is…why not?
